Hair Transplant in Turkey

Hair transplantation is a natural and permanent solution to the problem of thinning and baldness in people with hair shedding or hair loss. The process of transplanting healthy hair follicles to areas where hair follicles are no longer active by using microsurgical methods is called hair transplantation. In hair transplant surgery, the patient's own healthy hair is added to the lost area. In this respect, it is a different method from hair implants and generally provides a more natural appearance. This is one of the several reasons why hair transplantation is preferred over hair plugs for men.

Since hair loss is more common in men, mens hair transplant is considered as the safest and most permanent way to solve this problem. Most people who are considering having this procedure may ask, “how long does hair transplant last?” or “is hair transplant permanent?” Hair transplantation is planned and implemented completely individually, thus how long it lasts and how long hair transplant recovery time takes depends on many factors, including the person’s own aftercare. However, this process is in most cases extremely long-lasting and lasts for years.

During the hair transplantation operation, hair follicles that are resistant to loss, usually in the nape of the patient's neck, are collected and transplanted into the channels opened in the areas where there is thinning or complete hair loss. With the implementation of hair graft , the aim is to give a natural, permanent-haired appearance so that it is not obvious that the transplantation has been made in the head area. With hair transplantation, the person regains his or her own hair permanently, as if he or she had never lost it.

The safest way for hair transplantation is that it is performed in a hospital environment by doctors and teams who are experts and experienced in their field. Therefore it is crucial to do research before making a decision and to compare clinics and hair transplant prices because hair transplant cost varies depending on the country it is performed.

Hair Transplant Operation in Turkey

Turkey has become the hair transplantation centre of the world due to its affordability and technical development. In just one year, on average, more than one million people from 165 different countries choose Turkey for hair transplantation. But there are some other reasons why so many people choose hair transplant Turkey as the best hair transplant in the world.

Due to Turkey's geographical location, many patients from European countries, Gulf countries and North Africa come to visit our country for hair transplantation. But Turkey's geographical location is not the only reason for this interest. Patients who come to Turkey every year for treatment leave our country satisfied and happy, as Turkey hair transplant reviews show.

When asked which country offers the best hair transplant Turkey is the answer thanks to the correct use of developing technology, effective selection of hair transplantation methods suitable for every hair type and affordable price policy.

  • FUT (Follicular Unit Technique) Technique
  • FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) Technique
  • DHI (Direct Hair Transplantation) Technique
  • Sapphire FUE Technique

 

FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) Technique

 

Fut Hair Transplant


FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) is a hair transplant Turkey technique that has been used for a long time. The FUT technique involves the removal of a scalp strip measuring approximately 20 to 30 cm in length and 1 to 2 cm in width. In graft harvesting with the FUT method, also known as strip harvesting, a strip-shaped piece of skin is taken from the donor area. Graft is taken from this piece of skin and the hair follicles are separated. Hair transplantation is performed by transplanting these grafts to the planned area. With the help of local anaesthesia, no pain is felt during the operation. Due to the rapid progress of technology in recent years, however, the FUT method has now become the second choice.

 

Advantages of FUT:



1)    The harvesting process takes approximately 15 minutes.
2)    If there is little hair in the donor area, this method may be recommended by the doctor in order to collect more grafts.
3)    It is relatively cheaper than other methods.

 

Disadvantages of FUT: 



1)    Risks such as infection and inflammation are much higher than other methods.
2)    The possibility of leaving a scar or mark on the neck area is high.
3)    The healing process lasts longer than other methods.

 

FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) Technique

Fue Hair Transplant

FUE technique is the most frequently applied technique that gives effective fue hair transplant result. It is the process of transferring live hair follicles taken one by one from the donor area to the balding area. Individual grafts that contain strands of hair are removed from the back and side of the head with 0.6mm-1.2 mm mini punches using special tipped micro-engines under local anaesthesia and transplanted into the recipient area. Fue hair transplant is the most comfortable technique compared to old methods, as it is performed without any stitches.

As it also provides a much more natural appearance, many people around the world prefer fue hair transplant in Turkey. Even though it has a lot of advantages and is the latest technology, the fue cost at Sanamentum is still affordable for everyone, as we want health services to be accessible to everyone and want everyone to find the courage to take this important step for their own health. For further information on our fue hair transplant Turkey prices, you can simply fill out our contact form here. 

Advantages of FUE: 


1)    There is no visible scar left both in the donor area and in the recipient area.
2)    It gives a much more natural appearance than other methods.
3)    It is more comfortable compared to other methods, patients can return to their everyday life the next day.


Disadvantages of FUE:


1)    It has to be performed by highly experienced and professional specialists.
2)    The operation takes a relatively longer time.
3)    Hair is shaved before the transplantation process.

 

DHI (Direct Hair Transplantation) Technique

Dhi Hair Transplant

DHI hair transplantation technique, unlike other traditional hair transplantation methods, is a method in which hair follicles are placed directly in the area to be transplanted by using special Choi Implanters. Hair follicles located in the patient's nape area are generally preferred for the operation. Healthy hair follicles in this area are carefully removed with a micromotor device, which is a highly advanced technological tool. New hair follicles are placed in accordance with the direction of growth of each hair, thus providing a much more natural appearance.

Thanks to the DHI method, which does not require difficult procedures such as opening channels in the bald area, the number of sessions required for successful results is reduced. There are no scars or marks after the procedure and the healing time is significantly shortened. Since this reduces the risk of infection in the area, the DHI method is considered one of the most reliable hair transplantation methods. When considering the cost of this technique, dhi hair transplant in European countries, prices are much higher than Turkey prices, yet both offer quality above world standards.

 

Advantages of DHI:


1)    DHI is the fastest technique and has the shortest healing process.
2)    This method gives the most natural and aesthetic results because it perfectly matches the natural structure of the hair.
3)    It leaves almost no scar or mark after the operation.
4)    More hair follicles are transplanted in a single session.


Disadvantages of DHI:


1)    It may not be suitable for all candidates. There must be enough hair follicles in the donor area. The final decision is made by the doctor considering the factors and features of the candidate.
2)    It may have a relatively high cost.

 

Sapphire FUE Technique

Sapphire Fue Hair Transplant

Sapphire hair transplantation is an advanced version of the FUE hair transplantation technique applied with special sharp-tipped surgical pens made of precious stones called sapphire. The Sapphire FUE technique, in which channels are opened with sapphire instead of steel tips, allows the opening of much smaller channels compared to the classical technique. It is the most comfortable hair transplant Turkey technique since the channels opened by sharp sapphire tips are much smaller and a smooth surgical incision significantly shortens the wound healing process, reduces tissue deformation and gives much more natural hair transplantation results.


Advantages of Sapphire FUE:


1)    The sapphire tips used in the operation have a harder and sharper structure compared to metal tips, and therefore the risk of tissue damage in the area where hair will be transplanted is lower.
2)    It offers the opportunity to add more grafts.
3)    The healing process is considerably shorter.


Disadvantages of Sapphire FUE:


1)    Its cost is higher compared to other methods.
2)    The number of places offering this operation is less than other methods, so finding highly experienced experts in this field may be challenging.

 

 

Fue Dhi Hair Transplant

If you are considering getting a mens hair transplant, you may wonder “are hair transplants permanent?”. The answer to this question is basically yes, but it depends on such factors as your personal care, your age, your heritage etc.  While you are wondering this, you may also do research about the techniques and their advantages in order to get the best hair transplant in Turkey. To learn more about the techniques and find out the best option for you among Turkey hair transplant packages along with the personalized information, you can simply fill out our contact form here. The differences between the two mostly-preferred techniques are summarized below: 

1)    DHI method is used for more regional hair loss, like hairline transplant. In the FUE technique, however, larger areas can be transplanted.

2)    In the DHI method, around 1500-2000 hair graft are transplanted. In the FUE method, on average, 4000 grafts can be transplanted in one session.

3)    There is a shorter recovery time with the DHI method after the operation. Additionally, there is less chance of bleeding. 

4)    The FUE method takes 6-8 hours on average. Since the procedure is a little more sensitive in the DHI method, the operation time is longer.

5)    While in the FUE technique, it is necessary to wait for the channel opening process, in DHI, transplantation can start directly.

6)    DHI technique can provide excellent results for patients who request unshaved hair transplantation. In order to perform FUE, it is necessary to shave the hair for the perfect fue hair transplant results.

7)    In the FUE technique, a medical tool is used. In the DHI technique, transplantation is performed with a special pen called the DHI pen also known as the Choi pen.

There may be some red dots on their head for a couple of weeks, but they will disappear in the process of time.

Hair Transplant Effects

 

After the operation, the hair follicles begin to fall out. This is a completely normal process as new hair will grow stronger afterwards, so the patients should not be worried about them falling out. They start to see their hair transplant results in 3 months but need to wait for about a year for the ultimate result. At this point, patients are worried about the question “how long does a hair transplant last?” or “is hair transplant permanent?”. No need to worry! Hair transplant procedures are long-lasting and even life-long treatments, your newly-grown hair is as strong as it has ever been before. But still, there are some factors that can affect these times, such as ageing and lack of personal hygiene. As long as you take care of your hair as needed, it will continue growing for the rest of your life.

Hair Transplant Process

 

Hair Transplant Recovery Process


One of the main concerns of the patients is how long the hair transplant recovery time takes. For this process to continue smoothly and comfortably, there is some information you need to know. There is no need to worry about the question “do hair transplant last forever?” The only thing you need to do is to follow the given instructions thoroughly and carefully because the quality of the results is strictly related to how well the patient takes care of his/her post-transplant instructions.

As long as you show the necessary care for your newly transplanted hair, it will continue growing for the rest of your life. At the end of the day, you will say that having a hair transplant operation in Sanamentum is worth it. Right after the transplant procedure, numbness can be expected for several days. This usually continues for 2-3 days. After 15 days, you will generally have a normal appearance with a slight redness on the head. If beard hair grafts have been used as a donor area, they can be shaven after one week. After about one month, the donor area is usually healed. So, how long does a hair transplant take to grow? Let’s look at the process in more detail:

 

7 Days After Hair Transplant: The patient may feel a little numb for the first 2-3 days and swelling may be experienced in the first week. These will disappear after the first week.


10 Days After Hair Transplant: Small dots may be seen on the head, but they disappear after 7-10 days.


2 Weeks After Hair Transplant: There will be no visible scar or mark left in the area, but it is quite likely that the patient still feels itchy. No special care at this stage is needed.


1 Month After Hair Transplant: In this period, the new hair that grew after the transplant will begin to fall out. Later, it will begin to grow back. Hair shedding after hair transplant is quite normal and healthy. 


4 Months After Hair Transplant: The hair is about 4-6 cm long and begins to look denser and the itchiness felt on the head has disappeared. 

 

You may also encounter some statements saying that there have been 5 months after hair transplant no density is observed. This is quite normal as the final result can clearly be seen after one year. Even after 6 months after hair transplant no density is observed because this is the time your newly-grown hair is gaining strength and density, you can see the final hair after a year and at the end of the day, this result you see proves that it is all worth it.
